28 The outfit of the whole collection was inspired by the HVSC collection (with
29 some differences). I hope you'll like this collection. To get in touch with
30 us, see the "Contact" section of this document.

72 Help!
73 ~~~~~
74 As you can see, there are lots of songs in the 'Unknown' directory. If
75 you can provide us with any missing information about any song (who did it,
76 where does it come from, when was it composed), please let us know
77 immediately so that we can complete the information about the song in ASMA
78 (and move it to the appropriate directory). We would welcome if you sent us
79 also the binary file (or an ATR/XFD disk image) with the original piece of
80 software with that song.
